Okay, time to get together for our next happy hour!
Our happy hour will benefit MVMA's (Maryland Vietnamese Mutual Association) GAPS (Golden Age Project for Seniors) program... http://www.mdvietmutu... ... a program which helps seniors navigate resources provided by the government. MVMA's mission overall is to serve, support, and advance the Vietnamese American community... suggested $5 or $10 donation. Please note 80% of donations go to the MVMA and 20% of donations will go to the 20s & 30s Asian Going Out Group to cover Meetup fees and expenses. Other groups that will be joining us:
20s & 30s Asian Going Out Group
OCA-NOVA (Organization for Chinese Americans - NOVA)
OCA-YP (Organization for Chinese Americans - Young Professionals)
Vietnamese Professionals
AsiaRoom DC Professionals
DC / MD / VA Taiwan group
Chinatown Community Cultural Center
Asia Society Young Professionals
Washington Area Japanese Culture
DJ Saam will be spinning loungy groovy beats for us. Our happy hours typically bring out 150 - 200 folks... and I wouldn't be surprised with a similar turnout this time around.
If you haven't been there before, Eyebar features sleek, modern décor, cushy furniture, and trendy lighting!
To help continue the friendly tone of this group... I'd like to again encourage each person to have a GOAL OF MEETING 3 NEW PEOPLE at this event. Also, 20s & 30s Asian Rockstars, please help make all the newcomers feel welcome to our group!

Closest Metro is Farragut West (Orange Line), I suggest metro / cabbing it (esp. during rush hour). I also recommend using wmata for travel plans.
